NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       tarsets - subset kitting command file generator

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       /usr/lbin/tarsets [-d] pathname

OPTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Enable  debugging.  Debug trace diagnostics are written to
       ts.dbg in the current directory.

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The tarsets command is used by the kits utility to produce
       software  kits  for  use  with  the setld(8) utility.  The
       tarsets command reads subset inventory records from  standard
 input and writes a command procedure to standard output.
   This  command  procedure  contains   the   commands
       required  to create subset images for the subset described
       in the input.

       The pathname argument specifies the root directory for the
       file  hierarchy  containing  the files to be kitted in the
       subset.

       All error diagnostics are written to a file  named  stderr
       in the current directory.

RESTRICTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       The  output command procedure produces multiple tar files.
       Each tar file has a goal size of 400 Kb.  The command procedure
  is modified automatically to produce a single subset
 image when the tarsets utility is called from the kits
       utility.

RETURN VALUES    [Toc]    [Back]

       The  tarsets  utility  has successfully completed.  A hard
       link referenced in the inventory cannot be  found  in  the
       input hierarchy.

ERRORS    [Toc]    [Back]

       The input record on line n is not in subset inventory format.
  The input record for path1  contains  a  pointer  to
       path2  in  the referent field and path2 does not appear in
       the  inventory.   This  error  indicates  that  path2  was
       deleted from the inventory after being created by the invcutter
 command.  These are obsolete messages  and  can  be
       ignored.   This is an informational message.  The number j
       is the number of characters in the command written to  the
       output to produce volume k.
